The upcoming 4.2 release will include an install42.iso file, which is
exactly what you want.
I guess what I meant to ask was that if I order the CDs (and
therefore have earlier access than waiting for FTP - which is nice!)
would all the needed files be on these (CDs) or will I still need to
use FTP for the needed install files.
If the CDs totally contain anything and everything I need directly,
then it makes sense to order them ASAP. If they dont and I need to
rely on FTP install then ordering doesnt make any sense. In that case
a donation would be more appropriate.
I'm sorry if I misunderstood the answer. I just dont want to waste
the money on CDs if I still need to grab the file(s) from FTP.

that single word "waste" is one easy way to insult the OpenBSD Project
and community.
JD said that he'd rather make a donation than buy discs that would be
a waste of money (both for him and the OpenBSD project since those
discs aren't free to produce).
That seems like a very commendable attitude. At least, I don't find it
insulting in any way.
